Re: Are tensioners worth it?

If you choose to go the window motor pivot route, you should install an adjusting bolt in a bracket with double nutting the bolt so it will hold the motor in proper tension position. Similar to what you see on a motorcycle rear wheel axle mount to tension and hold axle position.
